It's literally the worst phone I have used by far. Within 6 months of purchase had to replace the screen and the microphone module thanks to 1 yr warranty didn't weight heavily on me. After that the proximity sensor broke, and then the screen started having ghost touch. Now after A12 update the VoLTE feature is missing.
Nokia never again.
CAVBR, 10 Jan 2023My TA-1223 still is in May 2022 SP, build 2.210.I manually installed v2.290 thanks to the OTA packages provided by the Nokia OTA Package group on Telegram (in Brazil, this update was ignored, directly notifying v3.490 with Android 12 for users that have v2.210).
I'm now on the February 2023 security patch, and I intend to keep it that way, considering I hated some of the Android 12 changes.
Until 1 April 2023, my Nokia 5.3 had Android 10. It was completely unmanageable, had almost no battery life, the Files by Google app didn't work, I rarely picked it up as a second phone, and I wanted to throw it in the bin because I really thought nobody would buy it. But when I switched it on a long time later, it was maybe the first week of April... I didn't recognise it, I didn't know what had happened, because it was updated with Android 12. Now it works perfectly, fast, battery life is longer, and I'm using it again every day, installing new apps. But all this was unexpected, and I still don't understand how Android 12 was installed from Android 10. BTW, my Nokia 5.3 even doesn't have Android 11.
This phone does have some sensors:
fingerprint: yes
accelerometer: yes
gyroscope: no
magnetometer: yes
light: yes

Hi, my phone is still Android 11, there is Security Update 2023-02 with 1,72 GB size, will this upgrade to Android 12? Is it worth it or make the phone worst?

Do not factory reset your Nokia 5.3 if you updated to Android 12 with 2022 November Security update. Every Nokia 5.3 got bricked when we try to factory reset it after above mentioned update.
Also it's better you turn on "OEM bootloader" & "USB Debugging" on developer option. Unless you can't survive if your device got bricked. Like Unlucky me.
So any one know to way unbrick Nokia 5.3, post a comment on here.
Hmm, 27 Feb 2023Just got notification today about security update which is 1.72gb. Will it update to android 12?nope, i downloaded it

Anonymous, 21 Nov 2022Serious image retention/persistence problems. Colors are way worse than my samsung galaxy j6+.... moreLies. The J6+ has a PLS LCD while this has a quantum dot LCD, so the only problem with this display is a blue cast and nothing else
